Ingredients
4 cloves garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 loaf French bread or ciabatta, cut in half horizontally
Preparation
Finely mince garlic; season with salt. Place the flat side of a knife blade on top of garlic and press down firmly to mash into a paste. In a small bowl, combine garlic paste, butter, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill cut sides of bread, rotating once to make hatch marks, until lightly charred and toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Brush grilled sides with herb butter; serve immediately.
